Making kitchens hands- free | Mukunda Foods

A college student sets up a stall at a campus fest, selling vada pav. Little did he know this small venture would one day become India’s premier kitchen automation company- this is the story of Mukunda Foods!

Mukunda Foods initially began as a chain of quick-service restaurant (QSR) outlets in Bangalore, focusing on making and selling various kinds of dosas. 

However, they soon hit some roadblocks. They were short on staff, and their dosas weren't always hitting the mark!

So they figured out how to use technology to make their kitchen run smoother.

Mukunda Foods soon emerged as a pioneer in revolutionizing the food industry, ensuring consistent quality across large-scale food production for top restaurant chains across India.

They made sure every dosa, no matter how many were being made, tasted just right.

From humble beginnings as a college fest vendor to becoming India's kitchen automation giant- Eshwar's tale embodies grit, hustle, and relentless optimism.

Hear his incredible journey of transforming Mukunda Foods from a bootstrapped endeavour to a Zomato-backed triumph!
